I would just stick to what you have and possibly more on show. It's not like the Z is slow to begin with. $500 won't take you too far anyway. Probably like a poster said to use it on a BOV and possibly motivate you to get your car boosted.

get a NISMO Cold Air Intake or just save up for a super charger already. All these nickle and dime mods are more for sound than anything, not like you are going to feel +10 hp in a 3200# car.

Individually, anti - sway bars, pulley set, plenum spacer, are all in that range. Not much "go" there but the anti-sway bars make the turns more fun. All my mechancial mods are the nickel / dime variety. Why did I bother? I'm not a real mechanic by any stretch but these were easy enough for me to do without doing any damage and I enjoyed doing the work, learning about the car. Another option is to save another chunk of money and get an exhaust.

save up more money and buy all your mods at once. You may feel by the time you have a chunk of change you wont wanna spend it on mods and would rather save it for investment or a bigger nest egg. Happened to me before.
